The Simple Secret The Best Event Planners In The World Use
Any event planner will tell you how much work goes into each and every detail. But the secret sauce to take your event from ordinary to extraordinary?
PRINT.
Not what you typically put at the top of the list when it comes to organizing what you need. But think about it: invitations, welcome banners, signs with directions, wall and floor graphics.
Everything you need to pull together a theme and take your event from ordinary to extraordinary.
And it’s the one thing most event planners and organizers underestimate.
Using print at your next event
Weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, sweet 16s, corporate events, conferences. This applies to all of them. Let’s take a look at the pieces you can add to transform your event and make it an unforgettable one:
Invitations. Set the tone right out of the gate and get people excited about your event. Sweet 16 or corporate event? Have some fun and get people excited. Wedding or bar or bat mitzvah? Show how special the occasion is going to be with an invitation to match.
Welcome signs. Nothing is worse than getting to a place and wondering if you’re at the righ venue. Let guests know at the door that not only are they in the right location but there’s an amazing event waiting for them inside.
Welcome signs aren’t limited to easel board displays or banners either. Check out this floor wrap we did to welcome guests to a recent event planner expo. Get creative!
Floor and wall graphics. Out of all the print options, nothing transforms a space more than a floor or wall graphic. No matter what the venue you looks like you can turn it into a space to match any theme for any event. Dance all night, have thousands of attendees walk over it – for any purpose floor graphics are meant to still look great even after hours and hours of fun.
Banners. From welcome areas to stage toppers, banners incorporate the whole room into the event, allowing you to create a space that wows guests from every angle. Celebrating a special guest? Honor them with a banner strategically placed to make it into all the pictures.
Directional signage. Once guests arrive at the right place, let them know where to head next. Is the party down the hall to the elevators and two floors up? Steer them with floor or wall wraps, easel posters or banners.
